Chapter 11: Long Lost Hope part 3
It was morning in Nevada, Silas and his men were outside of their base with the femme standing between them. She has no emotions in her optics as she gazed blankly at the forest before her. Silas was proud at his work, the femme maybe short size for a cybertronian mech or femme, but she has high levels of energy and power that can destroy them instantly. Silas walks over to the femme and clears his throat, causing the femme looks down at him with no expression on her faceplate.
"Alright. Let's start a simple target practice." Silas smirks as he snaps his fingers. Multiple targets appeared from the ground. The targets almost resembled the Autobots as Silas points at the targets.
"Destroy the targets!" He ordered.
The femme followed the order and transforms one of her arms into a blaster and fired multiple shot at the targets, hitting them in the chest or head. Silas smirks at her as she finished off the last target, she lowered her blaster as it smokes a bit. "Very good, now. Let's see if you can do well in hand to hand combat." Silas said as he nodded at a scientist. The scientist pressed a remote as it beeps a red light, the femme turns her helm towards a cave and heard thundering footsteps, the femme stared blankly as robotic giant that almost resembles to cybertrinian stood in front of her. Their body parts look copper and their heads are cylinder, they're slight muscular and have blasters and shock batons. The femme stared at them blankly before using her free servo to summon a weapon, yellow sparks appeared, and a katana appeared in a flash. The femme clutched the weapon tightly before dashing towards the robot targets in a flash. The targets fired at her, she blocked every attack with he katana and fired her blaster at each of the targets' heads. One by one, each targets' heads blow up, she dashed towards them and slashed them in half.
She jumps high in the air and blocks the targets' attacks and fires her blaster at them. When she landed, one remained standing, and it was bigger than the rest. The femme stared at it blankly and deactivates her blaster. She readied herself by doing a ko gasumi stance. The two beings stood for a few moments before they charge, they strike their weapons, but the femme dodged the shock baton and slashed her katana at the target. When she landed, the target stood there, still like a statue, and in a few seconds the head of the target fell off and her body collapsed. The femme turns around and stared at her 'creator' who was clapping his hands with a smirk on his face.
"Excellent job." He said with pride and power. "Now, let us begin your next task, is to scan this."
Silas snaps his fingers and some MECH soldiers bring a truck that has a small fighter jet that is used in ambush attack. It was lean and elegant looking, making the perfect vehicle mode for the femme. Silas looks at the femme nodded, the femme stared at the jet blankly before her optics started to flicker and a beam of blue light scanned the jet, getting the information and uses of it. Once she finished scanning, the femme steps back before jumping in the air as she transforms into the jet with blue color scheme and yellow lining. She zooms around the base before returning-back and transforms into her bot mode. Silas's smirk grew even more as he looked at her with pride.
"Very good." Silas said. "In a few hours, you will be assigned a mission to capture and retrieve us a live sample, but if you're able to kill one, bring it as well." He added. "Let's go."
The femme followed Silas back to base with the others, the femme stops her track when she notices one of the targets was still online and was trying to stand up to fight, but the femme steps on it and activates her blaster before she fires the blast on its head, killing instantly. She then walks away to follow Silas to the base, leaving the destroyed targets on the ground.
Somewhere in Nevada forest, a blue and gold private jet flew above the trees in the afternoon. The jet was slimmer and more durable for a reason. Inside the jet was Angel. Angel was reading an article about some parts of forest having been left with giant tracks, and now one, not even the forest rangers, know why. Angel suspects it was Silas and his men, but it was something else, something bigger. The jet landed on a clearing and opened its door for Angel to get out. Once she did, the jet transformed into Mystica, Angel took out a scanner and showed her what area they should go.
"Well, it appears that there's a strange activity going around here." Angel said. "And it's not human work."
Mystica scans the area for any signatures. She could feel other signatures, separate areas. On the north side and west side. Mystica looked at Angel and said. "There are separate signatures, they're in both different areas."
Angel hums. "We should split up. I'll take the north and you take the west."
Mystica raised an optical-ridge at her. "Can you do it by yourself?"
Angel chuckles at her. "Don't worry, Morphy's with me." Angel said. Morphy was morphed into a belt for him to sneak attack any opponent.
Mystica nodded. "If there's trouble, call me." Mystcia said before flying away while Angel walks towards the direction that she needs to go. Angel uses her scanner to track down the beings that cause the big tracks. The tracks resemble a snake track, it could've been a mythical snake creature, the only giant mythical snakes that leaves these tracks could be a Basilisk, a Leviathan, or Jörmungand/Midgard (World) Serpent. But there's another problem, how can I do this? They're far away from different lands, they can't be here…unless it's something else. Angel continues following her scanner when she stumbles upon a giant snake track, Angel kneels-down and studies the track. It was fresh, and there's no scales left behind. Angel narrows her eyes before standing up and follows the track again, this was getting interesting for Angel. She will learn what creature caused the giant track and discovered that the track leads to a hidden cave.
"I wonder where this leads too." Angel whispers as she enters the cave. It was dark, and she couldn't see anything, so she brought out her flashlight-visors to see through the dark. Her visors scan the cave, helping her to avoid many cracks and holes, and stalagmites. Then something slithers through the darkness, Angel snaps at the direction where it came from. Then another slithering figure passed her again, which caused Angel to bring out her duel pistols and readied for the attack. Then another figure slithered behind her, which made Angel turn and fired a few rounds, destroying a rock in mere seconds. Then she heard a loud hiss. She quickly glanced and swiftly turns with her guns point out, only to be face to face with a giant femme predacon Basilisk. Angel stared at femme predacon under her visors as the Basilisk predacon growls at her. Angel didn't faze, as she stared at the predacon for a while before making a small gentle smile on her face.
"Greetings." Angel sends a telepathically message to the basilisk predacon.
The predacon's optics widened in shock and surprise and reared its face with a mighty hiss. Angel smiles casually. "Forgive my actions earlier. I thought you were going to attack me."
The predacon blinks at her in confusion. Why is this human being so nice? And how can she speak through her processor? There were only a few predacons that can do those things. She's been here for many years since the great cataclysm on Cybertron, and the creatures that she knows of (mostly humans and animals) couldn't speak through minds, yet for some reason, this human could speak her through the minds. She wonders what she is. As if Angel could understand her, the super-soldier said telepathically. "I can do these things because I am not a human."
The predacon tilts her head in confusion at her, she doesn't quite understand Angel's explanation. Angel saw the look on the predacon's face and smiled again. "How about I show you, hmm?"
With that said, Angel's eyes glow like fire and the predacon's optics widen as she sees Angel's past and more, learning new things and discovering many secrets. Once it is finished, Angel's eyes return to normal and look at the shock predacon. "Now that you know…" Angel outstretches her hand, causing the predacon to look down at her. "Would you like to see your kin again?"
The predacon stared at her, her optics looked through her, for a moment. The predacon can destroy her in mere seconds, but instead. She slowly made her way towards the human, Angel still had her hand outstretched when a bright light came from the predacon and a single claw digit gently touched Angel's free hand. Angel smiles at the predacon who is now in her bot form, her form resembles a naga, but bigger and scarier.
"I would like to see my kin again." The predacon femme said with a smile. "And by the way, my name is Echidna."
"Echidna…how interesting." Angel hums, remembering the Greek History about Echidna, the Mother of Monsters, yet this predacon has the name and can speak formally. "Well, we should be going now, is there anyone else here?"
"Yes, my sparklings Naja, Ivory, and Ebony." Echidna said.
Suddenly, three snake predacons that resemble king cobras, the three are femmes, but in different colors, red, white, and black, but the three have blue dots and markings on them. "These are my daughters, Naja is the red one, Ivory is the white one, and Ebony is the black one."
"I see…well, we should go and meet up with my sister, we will take you to your kin."
Echidna nodded but asked. "Where is your sister?" She remembers seeing it in Angel's visions before.
"She's off to find another presence close by." Angel answered. "I hope she's okay."
Meanwhile, Mystcia was flying through the sky, looking for the source of the energy signature. It wasn't far, she could tell that's hidden in a secret cave or a crater. She could feel that she is close to the source. She saw an open dome like crater and saw something glistening on the ground. Mystcia dives down towards the crater and hovers from the ground, she inspects the crater. There's not much on it, just dirt, rocks and…something shining from the ground. Mystica lands on the ground before she kneels-down to inspect the shiny object, she brushes the dirt off and sees a glass-like door. Looking closely, she activates her scanners on her optics to see that it was actually a pod and there's something or someone inside of it. Scanning even further, Mystica saw that someone was actually a sparkling, a predacon sparkling to be exact and it appears to be in stasis. Standing up, Mystica scanned the whole area to find out if there are more, and she was right. There are other sparklings in stasis, buried in the sand. Standing up, Mystcia raised a servo before forming a fist with it. And in mere seconds, the sands that buried the sparklings were blown away, to reveal all the stasis pods of the sparklings.
She then closes her optics for a while, letting a swirl of energy come to her. And seconds later, she snaps her glowing optics and the pods glowed before snapping open while releasing icy-streams. Mystica watched as the sparklings stumbled out of the pods, slipping or sliding off, and were looking around in confusion and sadness, some of the sparkling predacons were crying out for their creators for comfort, but none avail. They were lost, scared, and needed comfort. Mystica then felt something nudging her legs, looking down, Mystica saw a sparkling Chimera femme, she has a body and head of a lion with a glowing blue mane, metal feathered wings, a pink energon rose on her ear, and a snake for a tail. She was looking at Mystica with bright pink optics, curious about Mystica. Mystica kneels-down on her legs and pats one servo on her leg to the sparkling chimera. The chimera sparkling trots over to her and hops on Mystica's legs, snuggling at the comfort. Mystica slowly strokes the sparkling's mane, causing the sparkling to purr. Mystica looks at the sparkling for a while before looking at the others, who were trying to call out to their creators sadly and pleadingly. Mystica needs to get them together and comfort them at the same time, and she knows what to do.
Taking a deep breath for her vent and began to sing a calming song.
(Secret Garden Aragorn's Sleepsong)
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Lay down your head and I'll sing you a lullaby
Back to the years of loo-li lai-lay
And I'll sing you to sleep and I'll sing you tomorrow
Bless you with love for the road that you go
When Mystica sings, the sparklings stop calling out for the creators, they turn to Mystica as she comforts the chimera sparklings. Wanting to be comforted, the predacon sparklings went towards Mystica and snuggled close to her or circle around her to have protection. Mystica's glowing tentacle like 'hair' separates into more to give comfort to the sparklings.
May you sail far to the far fields of fortune
With diamonds and pearls at your head and your feet
And may you need never to banish misfortune
May you find kindness in all that you meet
May there always be angels to watch over you
To guide you each step of the way
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Then a big black predacon dragoness slowly came out from her pod when she heard Mystica's singing, she's the same height as Nightdeath, her dark blue eyes look at Mystica curiously. Beside the femme was a male cyber-wolf, he has black color scheme with blue markings and a scary necklace on his was bigger than Daisy and Skyhowl. The two were at a far distance from Mystica as she comforts the sparklings, by singing to them gently.
May you bring love and may you bring happiness
Be loved in return to the end of your days
Now fall off to sleep, I'm not meaning to keep you
I'll just sit for a while and sing loo-li, lai-lay
May there always be angels to watch over you
To guide you each step of the way
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay...
Once Mystica finished, the sparklings were asleep by her song, she gently put the sleeping chimera sparkling down with the other sparklings. Mystica turns around to see the black femme dragoness looking at her with her cyber-wolf. Mystica flies towards her and looks at her in the optics. Mystica placed both her servos on each side of the predacon's face. "Watch them." She spoke gently before she gave the predacon a gentle kiss on top of her head. Mystica withdraws before flying out while the predacon watches the sparklings. Mystica went out of the crater and saw her sister riding on a predacon Basilisk's back with three minicons. She hovers in front of them as the basilisk predacon stopped. Angel saw Mystcia and smiled.
"Hello Mystica, did you find the other source?" Angel asked.
Mystica nodded before her eyes flashed as she teleports them and her back on the crater where the sparklings were, the dragoness femme was surprise to see Mystica back as well as seeing others.
"I found them in these escape pods, apparently they were able to escape the destruction of their home." Mystica said, looking at the sparklings.
Angel hums in agreement. "I see, but here's another question, how did the sparklings find escape pods even though there was no advanced technology back on Cybertron when predacons ruled it."
Echidna hissed at her gently, explaining what happened to them many years ago. Angel understood her clearly. "You found a strange looking building close by that has the right pods for your escapes...this is getting serious and strange. Mystica, try and contact the one known as Foxtrot, maybe she-" Angel was cut off when Mystica's head shot up and looked at the orange sky. "Is there something wrong?"
"We have an uninvited guest." Mystica said as she looked at Angel. "I will deal with it." She added before taking off in full speed and headed towards the source. She zooms through the sky and scans for the source's direction. She flies through the pillars and then suddenly she sees something spark before being fired. Her optics widened and dodged the incoming attack on time. Multiple shots were fired and Mystica dodged them in full speed. She then transforms one of her arms into a big blaster and aims it at the direction where the shots have been fired, it charges up a golden blue energy before releasing a powerful blast. The blast was sent towards the direction where the shot came from and then caused it to explode. Mystica lowers her blaster, as it lets out smoke, and searches for the source, her scanners indicate that the source vanished. She searches further through the area and then suddenly a figure appears behind her and is about to attack Mystica from behind until Mystica blocks the attack with a sword that she had summoned to block her attacker. Mystica pushes her attacker away and punches it, sending it hurdling to the ground, it then flips itself and uses her legs to land on the ground hard, creating a big crater. Mystica hovers down and gets a good look at her attacker. Turns out, it was femme, she was short and is about half the size of her, she has sky blue color scheme and a bit of yellow, but her optics were blank, no signs of emotions.
Mystica narrowed her optics at the femme as she placed herself on the ground and watched as the femme slowly stood up with no fear. Mystica looks at the femme from top to bottom before looking at her in the optics. "Who are you?" Mystica asked coldly.
She heard a radio sound from her as Mystica heard the voice of her enemy. "Greetings, Mystica." The femme didn't speak from her mouth, there was a communication implant hidden somewhere.
Mystica narrowed her optics and gritted her dentas and hissed. "Silas."
Silas was Mystica and Angel's archenemy, he and his men attacked their home, killed their mother, and tried to use them as super soldiers, but failed miserably. And now, they created their own Cybertronian to capture or kill her and other cybertronians. Speaking of which, Silas and his men were on their base, using the femme as their communicator and camera to see the outside world, and it was doing fine. "I see you met my new weapon, Project Shinobi." Silas said as he used the microphone to send the message.
Mystica looks at the femme blankly. "I notice. How did you get this femme to be a warrior? She looks like an innocent being."
Mystica heard Silas laugh from the communicator, "Well…considering this 'innocent' being before us was once an innocent human being."
Mystica's optics narrowed even further. "You're bluffing."
Silas raises a brow as he looks at the monitor that shows Mystica's form. "Am I? Shinobi, sword ready."
With that single command, the femme summons a katana and ready to strike Mystica. Mystica stared at the femme in surprise, Silas has control on the femme, forcing her to fight, to hunt, and to kill. Mystica cannot let that happen.
"You are indeed a monster." Mystica said coldly. "Using her as a puppet for your own doing, and what she gets in return? Nothing, just being used as a weapon." Mystica said venomously.
"It appears that I struck a nerve there." Silas mocked. "Well, why don't Shinobi give you some tips to calm down…Shinobi, attack!" He ordered.
(Battle music: Make A Move by Icon for Hire)
When he gave that command, the femme strikes at Mystica in full speed with her sword ready and was about to stab her until Mystica blocks the femme's attack with her sword. Mystica pushes her few feet and ready to strike the femme but only to be block by the katana of the femme's.
Mystica glares at the blank face femme as she holds her ground. Then she heard Silas's voice again. "Don't you see? Project Shinobi will assist us to upgrade our weaponry and bring our technology to the next level."
Mystica glares at the femme, she's not angry at her, she's angry at Silas, Mystica pushes the femme with all her force, sending her flying to the trees, but the femme uses her legs to slide herself to stop. The femme readied her katana and charges at the femme in full speed, she strikes at Mystica, who blocks all her attacks with her sword.
"You're using her to hurt innocents! You took her away from her life, her home, and her family! She doesn't deserve this!" Mystica exclaims loudly as she blocks the next attack.
The femme flips herself and jumps behind Mystica, the femme landed behind Mystica and fired her blaster, but Mystica dodges in time by back flipping behind the femme and did a round house kick behind her. The femme fells down as Mystica took to the sky while the femme stood up. The femme looks up at Mystica blankly and was given an order from Silas.
"After her! NOW!"
The femme transforms into a jet and took off to the sky, she activates her lasers and fires at Mystica. Mystica dodges them with her aerobatics, the femme chases Mystica, firing her lasers bullets at her. Mystica made flips and twirls to avoid the lasers. Mystica was lucky to have a six sense to help her in the time of need. They reach to the canyons, the femme continuous shooting at Mystica, but Mystica evaded her attacks before making a tight turn and the femme followed. Mystica turns and fires energy spheres at the femme. The femme quickly transforms into her bot mode and summons kunais before throwing them at the spheres. The impact causes them to explode, creating a gold and blue explosion. The smoke covered the scene before the femme flies out with holographic energon wings. Mystica was shocked to see that, but soon cuts off when the femme zooms after her. Narrowing her eyes, Mystica gave the femme a chase through the canyons. The femme was hot on Mystica's trail before Mystica flips and the femme fly past her and soon Mystica was chasing the femme.
"Lose her!" Silas ordered the femme through the comm.
The femme boosted her speed and gave Mystica a chase of her life time. Then the femme's yellow accessories from the both sides of her helm glowed, and two blue dots flies out of them before zooming away. Mystica summons a giant war axe and was about to slash the femme when suddenly she grabs a hidden yellow energy line that flips her up to avoid Mystica's war axe to hit her. The femme activates her blaster and release a blast, but she failed to notice that Mystica's eyes turned predatorial, and the blast hits Mystica from behind, sending her crashing to rocks, as well as burying her. The femme lets go of the energon line as it vanished before floating at the sky. She looks down where Mystica had crashed, she heard Silas laughing at the communicator.
"Excellent, my puppet, go and retrieve her body. we will need her to make another…how should I put it…oh yes. Another you." Silas ordered.
The femme flies down and lands, she deactivates her wings and walks over to the rubble where Mystica was buried. She was about to go further until Mystica exploded from the rubble. Everything was slow motion, the femme saw Mystica's form change but didn't get a better look when he faceplate was soon meet by a fist that send her crashing to a boulder. Her back hits the wall, she lets out gasp, but couldn't let out a sound, but on the back of her neck where the control chip was implanted made a small crack and let out a small static. She collapsed on the ground, ignoring the pain as she slowly stood up and saw Mystica's new form. Her form was different, it was more…predator. Her servos turned into claws, her armor changed into what looks like dragon armor, and she also has a tail with three hand claws. The femme stared at her what appears to be in shock as Mystica looks at her and bares her sharp dentas. The femme wanted to tremble in fear, but the chip was still intact and couldn't control her body, she was forced to follow orders and activates both her blasters and fires at Mystica. Mystica saw the attack and activated a dome energy field to block the attack.
The femme stopped attacking when Mystica's dome deflected her blast. Mystica growls at her and summons a massive sword that outsizes her. The femme stared in complete shock at the sight of the massive sword, her spark pounded in her chest as she tried to escape, but the chip prevented her from moving.
"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! ATTACK!"
The was forced to fight Mystica as she summons a katana and strikes at Mystica. Mystica blocks her attack and uses her free claw servo to form a fist and punched the femme high to the sky. Mystica vanished her sword and teleports herself to the femme above and raised her leg up and hits it on the femme's fuel tank. With the force, the femme was send down, only to get hit again by Mystica when she teleported down and punches the femme. Mystica summons her massive sword and teleports herself again to the femme before striking her. Luckily, the femme was quick enough to summon a katana to block Mystica's attack. The femme quickly activates her wings as she and Mystica continued sword fighting in the air. Mystica's sword was proven much powerful than the femme's weapon. When their blades crashed again, the two tried to push each other off. But the femme wanted to stop, she wanted to stop now and get of here. So, with enough strength, the femme was slowly and carefully choke/stutter out a single word.
"Te…tet…su…dau…"
Mystica's optics widen when she heard that before she had enough force to push the femme away from her and rethinks the word in her processor. Tetsudau…she knows that word, it means 'help' in Japanese. And that's when Mystica saw that the femme's optics shows a little life in them. The femme was struggling to take control, but Silas has the power to control her like a puppet. Mystica snaps out from her train of thoughts when the femme activates her blaster and summons a katana before attacking with rapid fire. Mystica's predacon instincts took over as she used her claws to deflect the blast and then charged her claws to create energy slashes. The femme blocks them with her katana but didn't get a chance to attack when Mystica was in front of her and gave her might punch on the faceplate and send her flying towards a pillar. The femme crashes into it and was about to fall off when Mystica came and tackles her, that enough force mad them go through the pillar, destroying it on the process. Mystica punches the femme high before flying after her, she gave the femme enedless punches on before using her tale to toss her to the ground. The femme crashes to the ground, nearly broken, energon were leaking off her arms, legs, and mouth piece.
"GET UP YOU WORTHLESS MACHINE!"
The femme heard Silas yelled through the communicator. The chip still had control on her as she slowly stood up and tried to find Mystica, but soon stopped when she felt a powerful energy. She slowly looks up and her optic widens to see Mystica in the air with a giant dragon cannon and it was charging a powerful blast. The femme tried to get up and run away but energy tentacles appeared from the ground and trapped her. The femme looks up at Mystica as she readies to fire. Mystica looks down at the femme and saw the fear in her optics.
Mystica closes her optics and whispers sadly. "I'm sorry." Then a magical symbol appeared above Mystica, it was a dragon that was in a circle with a dragon symbol on it. Mystica snaps, opens her optics and fires.
The cannon fired a powerful blast of golden energy that forms into a dragon roaring. The femme watched in shock as the dragon energy consumes her and destroy the ground. The chip on her neck broke into pieces, and disconnecting the femme from MECH. Speaking of MECH, Silas was glaring at the screen that shows static on the screen. Project Shinobi was an epic fail. Silas yelled in anger and punched the monitor, breaking it in the process.
Silas marches away angrily and orders. "Prepare the next project, we will get those Autobots and Decepticons, one way or another."
Meanwhile, Mystica slowly lands on the ground, she transforms back to original form when she deactivates her predacon mode, she walks towards the crater where she fired her blast at the femme. She stops the edge and slides down before stopping and headed towards the body of the half alive femme. The femme was badly injured, energons were bleeding out, sparks coming from her helm, and her optics were flickering. The femme slowly turns her helm to Mystica, who was looking at her calmly, and made a small smile. She was able to whisper something to Mystica before she passed out.
"Arigatou."
Mystica stared at the femme, her spark aches in pity and guilt, the femme didn't deserve this, even though the spell was meant to destroy the evil, the femme was barely alive and needed medical treatment. So, with her mind made, Mystica gently picks up the femme bridal style and flies out of the crater and headed towards back to Angel and the others. She made her way back and found them still there, she lands on the ground and Angel was shocked to see the femme in her arms.
"Mystica, who is that?" Angel asked in shock. Echidna and her daughters were shock to see the femme in her arms.
Mystica looks at them briefly and then to the femme. "She needs help." She said. "We need to go to Val's island."
Angel nodded before Mystica summoned a golden platform for her and the others before taking off. the sparklings were still asleep while Echidna and her daughters watches them with the femme and her cyber-wolf. They soar through the air and headed towards Isola Della Vita, Angel was able to get the location thanks to Antony. They saw the island and Mystica pushed in full speed and made their way to the center of the island. Once they reached the island, the resident predacons stopped what they were doing and watched in shock to see them. When Mystica landed, Diamond Silk, Sage, Sapphira, and the kids made their way to them. Saphira was shocked by Echidna, who transforms into her bot mode; she and Echidna were best friends back to Cybertron.
"Echidna?" Saphira spoke in shock.
Echidna turns to her and smiles. "Hello old friend." She greeted before turning to the femme in Mystica's arms worriedly. "She needs help."
Sage quickly made her way to Mystica and inspects the femme in Mystica's arms. She checks the femme's damages, Sage saw many damages of the femme, she's barely even online. "Take her to the medbay, she needs emergency medical treatment." Sage ordered.
Mystica nodded and followed Sage to Mercury quickly as possible. Saphira looked at the sparklings, who were waking up from their naps, and then to her fellow predacons. "Watch over the sparklings, they need comfort." She ordered gently before turning to Echidna. "Stay here with them, I and the others will be returning shortly." She said, earning a nod from Echidna.
Saphira and the others went to Mercury while Angel filled in everything. Once they reach to Mercury, they saw Mystica and Sage were with Foxtrot as Sage explains to her that femme needed medical attention. Foxtrot nodded as they headed to the medbay. The others followed them and entered the medbay where Mystica placed the femme on the berth before allowing Sage and Foxtrot do their medical skills on the femme. They attached wires on her, patching up the wounds, and adding energon in her systems. The process took many hours but eventually, they were able to stable the femme, to keep her alive, for now. The others were above them in another room on a one-way glass, Foxtrot and Sage went out and headed towards their room. Once they entered, everyone waited for the result.
"She's stable, but we have to keep close optics on her, she needs to be checked every orn." Sage said.
Diamond Silk turns to Mystica and asks. "Mystica, tell us, why did she attack you?"
Mystica turns to her and explains what happened. "Angel and I were searching from the strange source of activity nearby. We split up and found predacons and sparklings. Then I felt the femme close by, I went to check on the source until she attacked me."
"Why?" Damien asked curiously.
"Not on purpose, more likely, she was forced by Silas."
"Wait!" Quinn cuts her off. "Are you telling us that Silas, the guy who tried to capture you and your family, created her?!"
"She didn't create her, they experimented on her. They transfer her soul into a femme's body." Mystica explains sadly. "I had no choice but to fight back, I almost killed an innocent life."
"But you didn't." Angel said. "You made Silas and his men think that you destroyed her, but you didn't, instead, you spared her."
Mystica looked at her sister and nodded slowly before noticing someone missing. "Where's Val?" She asked.
Foxtrot steps in and says. "Val was sucked into a groundbridge."
"What?" Angel and Mystica asked unison in shock. "What do you mean by that?" Angel asked Foxtrot.
"Skyhowl and I were searching for a strange energy source, until the groundbridge opened on its own and sent Valentina, Celestia, and Kirit to who knows where." Foxtrot explains.
"Where's the groundbridge?" Angel asked Foxtrot.
"In another room down the hall. I told Skyhowl to stay there to check any changes, Daisy is with her."
"We have to find her." Angel said.
"How? She could be anywhere." Damien said. "Foxtrot tried to find her with Mercury in the computers, but she didn't show up."
"Maybe-" Before Angel could speak, the doors open to reveal Skyhowl, Daisy, and Val! With Dark, Celestia, Kirit, Dinosaur-like cybertronians and a male that they have no idea who he is.
"Val!" Val's friends exclaim happily as they run over to Dark, carrying Val. Dark quickly puts Val down and she was consumed by a big hug by them. They were saying how relieved they were that she was okay. They looked at the dinosaurs like cybertronians in shock and amazement while they looked at the shock Diamond Silk, Sage, and Foxtrot.
"Grimlock?!" Diamond Silk spoke in shock.
"Diamond? Sage? Foxtrot?" Grimlock looks at the three femmes in shock.
Swoop was about to hug Foxtrot and exclaims happily. "Fo-"
Foxtrot grabs his faceplate with one of her servos and says, "Don't." She tosses him away from her and he crashes at some empty energon boxes.
Dark came to them and said. "Alright, what the hell is going on here and why was Skyhowl and Daisy? They were the only ones that greeted us at the groundbridge?!"
"We'll explain to you what you need to know, and you will explain the things that we need to know." Saphira spoke wisely. "But, right now, we need to help someone that is in serious condition."
"What do you mean?" Val asked as her friends let her go.
Angel walks over her cousin and picks her up. "When Mystica, Morphy, and I were on our adventure, we were attacked, Mystcia was able to defeat her, but she was forced to fight." She explains.
"Who's she?" Dark asked Angel.
Mystica was the one who can answer that as she points at the one-way window. "She was controlled by an evil cooperation to capture me or any cybertronian life forms, and now, she is fighting for her life." She explains.
Angel hands over Val to Mystica as she shows Val what she means and Dark teleports on Mystica's shoulder. Val gasps in shock to see the femme badly hurt. "What happened to her?" Val asked.
"Long story, Val, but we will tell you soon. Right now, she needs help." Angel said.
Val chirps out. "I can heal her, like I did to Sludge and Grimlock."
Val's friends looked at each other before her. "When did you learn to do that?" Damien asked.
"When we met the Dinobots," Dark said, "Kiddo knows a thing or two of healing now."
Mystica stops them there. "Don't heal her yet." She said.
All eyes and optics were on her, "Why? Mystica, she needs help." Gem said.
"True that she needs help, but if Val heals her, will she accept her new form. After all, she was once a human." Mystica said.
"How can that be?" Arma asked Mystica, she and the others are still new to this place and have no idea what's going on.
"Either they have advanced tech, or they did Soul Transfer Ritual." Angel said.
"Wait, wait, wait…did you say, 'Soul Transfer Ritual'?" Aggie asked Angel.
Angel nodded. "Yes, are you familiar with it?"
Aggie nodded slowly. "A-aye, when I was reading my spellbook, I found a page that shows about soul transfer. It's used by Witch Doctors or sometimes shamans."
"That is correct, Aggie." Angel said.
"What's that even mean?" Gem asked.
Angel explains to them clearly. "You see, Soul Transfer is when someone transfers their soul into objects or another person."
"Wow, like Chucky?" Damien asked Angel, remembering that scary movie that he watched with Jay, Rocco, Izzy, and Triple D on a Friday night.
"In a way, yes, but different." Angel said. "If they did the ritual, they shouldn't control her like that."
"Do you think they combined it with technology?" Quinn suggested.
"Could be, but we are not curtained." Angel said before looking at the others and then to Soren, "By the way. Who is he?"
Dark looks at Soren and says, "Oh yeah. Forgot about him, this Soren. He's an Air Galatria."
"Wait what?" Everyone, minus the others who know, asked in shock.
"I'll explain later, but right now, what are we going to do with her?" Dark points at the femme on the berth.
Angel rubs her chin and thinks, they need a professional for this, someone who knows about technology and magic at the same time. And that's when she remembered someone. "I know who can help us." Angel said as she looked at the others, who looked back.
"You do?" Damien asked.
"Yes, she knows these things very well."
"And what is she?" Dark asked a bit rudely.
Angel smiles and says. "She's a shaman, the best of the best, and the one who turns Rocco into a ferret."
Rocco gasps in shock and a bit of anger. "Zosia!" He yelled out.
"Yes, Zosia will help us out." Angel said.
Foxtrot raised an optical ridge under her visor. "And how will she help us? Does she even know about our kind?"
Angel nodded with a smile. "Yes, she knows both magic and Cybertronians."
"How can she know Cybertronians?" Sage asked Angel.
Angel looks at them all seriously, knowing she's going to tell a big secret, but she must to save the femme. "The reason why she knows it, is because she is a Techno-organic."
And done, sorry for the long wait, I got distracted from time to time, also you will find Mystica's predacon mode on my Deviantart page in Dinodragongirl. And Gabriel, thanks for the ideas, and now, we will meet Zosia the Shaman in the next chapter. And sorry for the chapter was a bit dark. I wanted to have an action-like scene, and I use translations for the Japanese parts.
